The Lame Shop Name Shame Game


*Bob*

Recommended Posts

The rules are simple: just add to the list the name of any local shop with a name that's twee, hip, a blatant plea to a certain demographic, or just plain daft - as and when it appears. Extra points for a name that scores in more than one category.




Truly Scrumptious


Organic Village


Pussey Liquor


Pipkin&Co



*NB: you can still give them your business. Adding to the list does not make you a bad person etc etc

Is that the French one? Never even noticed had a name, it's always just been "The French Bakery" to us. Top lemon tarts.

I basically agree with this - with the exception of places actually selling French food. Of which, I think, we have a grand total of one.
